We built it! Our Plant Equipment review Rhino XN12 a bigger version of the XN08

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We are Eliza and David, together we hope to build a home in the Yarra Ranges just outside of Melbourne, Victoria. As owner builders we will share with you our journey over the next year or so. This week we review our mini excavator the Rhino XN12 (similar to XN08) Thanks for watching.

    Nice review. A little small for me but if it works for you that’s great! Love the sound of diesel motor. It’s far better that a briggs gas motor.

    I did extensive market research, and apparently RINO XN machines are the cream of the crop of all Chinese manufacturers. This is probably why you have had a good experience. I chose to go the middle route and went with a small factory adding all the features like the swing boom while not paying top dollar. The main downside is the cheapo Briggs 420cc vs kubota oelr yanmar diesel. I'm also glad that I am by the bargain basement ones where they cut to many corners and I also resellers.

    Hello great review on this machine. I'm thinking of buying one too . A person gets a real value for there dollar buying a machine like this . Although name brand machines are nice but way over priced . Well hope to see more of the excavator in action .

    Well done very nice review. This version with the yanmar does seem to be the one to choose ahead of the single cylinder version. It's all horses for courses and this machine suits you well. Probably still worth $10,000 or more.

    Thank you, I did try the single cylinder version and I felt that was under powered when trying to operations simultaneously.

    I'm sure I've seen other Rhinoceri travel faster than yours does. I'd be looking at the hydraulic controls to make sure that you have full movement of the valves and also any other restrictive or speed limiting devices in the hydraulic circuit which may be limiting travel speed in the name of operator safety.

    Hello, 2 years now, only 150 hours though. For the money it is exactly what I needed. It has managed everything I have asked of it. Its simple to maintain and it did come with a good selection of included attachments. I wouldn't say its an everyday machine for full-time commercial usage. Also I would recommend an swing boom over the fixed one this machine has.

    Why in the world would you track without the engine at full speed? 🙄 No wonder it moves so slow. You should get an excavator with two travel speeds, like a lot of them have.

    4:50 you call it easily filled? Imagine having it on trailer at gas station and line behind you. And then you start to disassemble piece of machinery to fill that half bucket sized fuel tank for 4$. This is some kind of joke. This tank may be was meant to be for hydraulic oil originally

    I bought a Xn12 and it is ok for the price, what makes me sad is that the manual is very bad, I have used it 40 hours in two years and many places are rusty, after 40 hours of use something is wrong with the engine, I took removed the cover of the engine to see what is wrong, and under the cover I found out that the welding work was very very bad, it looks like the welder could not weld, the rolling rubber band has many cracks on it, I don't know how to refilling the hydraulic oil in thanks if I want to do one day, nothing about it in the manual,

    I agree that the machine wouldn't last well if left outside for long periods. Mine is up to about 600hrs and is working very well. To refill the hydraulic oil, mine is under the floor mat opposite to the fuel cap.

    Very few people watch tractor videos to listen to music. They would much rather watch and listen to the equipment, not music! Tractor videos were not designed to be music videos.
